Yes, LPU presents lateral entry into various programs; it is especially more popular for B.Techs and Diploma courses. Candidates who completed a three-years engineering diploma after 10th or 10+2, or possess an equivalent degree, such as B.Sc. (Computer Science), BCA, or B.Sc. (Non-Medical), with at least 60% marks are permitted to apply for B.Tech lateral entry. The applicants then enter the second year of the B.Tech program. They must qualify for the LPUNEST entrance exam. LPU offers lateral entry across several streams, which include Computer Science, Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Electronics, Biotechnology, Food Technology, etc. Just like this, there is lateral entry in other diploma programs like Mechanical Engineering; to mention LPU's lateral entry, this example is a two-year course for the diploma holders, whereas eligibility is on the premise of prior qualifications relevant and on performance in the entrance test.Prospective students will apply to avail a lateral entry facilitation by online registration at the LPU website, uploading required academic documents, paying registration fees, and writing an LPUNEST exam. These students will then be admitted into the second year of the selected program once the entrance test results are declared. The LPU lateral entry degrees are recognized valid for employment and higher studies by UGC, AICTE, and other statutory bodies. This lateral entry option suits graduates and diploma holders from related streams optimally because it speeds up their tune-up towards engineering or technical education and entering the workforce.

To be eligible for a Ph.D. program at Lovely Professional University (LPU), applicants must possess a relevant postgraduate degree such as M.Sc., M.Tech, MBA, or an equivalent qualification with a minimum of 55% aggregate marks. Candidates fro To be eligible for a Ph.D. program at Lovely Professional University (LPU), applicants must possess a relevant postgraduate degree such as M.Sc., M.Tech, MBA, or an equivalent qualification with a minimum of 55% aggregate marks. Candidates from reserved categories like SC, ST, OBC (non-creamy layer), and differently-abled groups are granted a 5% relaxation, requiring at least 50% marks. For those who have completed a one-year or two-semester postgraduate program after a four-year undergraduate degree, a minimum of 75% marks in the undergraduate course is required. LPU does not accept distance or online postgraduate degrees for Ph.D. admissions in engineering disciplines to ensure research quality and academic rigor.LPU offers both full-time and part-time Ph.D. options, with the latter catering to working professionals who must provide a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from their employer. Admission is primarily based on the LPUNEST (Ph.D.), which is the university's entrance and scholarship exam, followed by a personal interview. However, candidates who have cleared national-level examinations like UGC-NET, JRF, GATE, SLET, or GPAT are exempted from the LPUNEST and are directly shortlisted for the interview stage. The final selection is determined by a combination of academic background, entrance test or exemption status, and performance in the interview. High-performing candidates may also be awarded scholarships to support their research journey.
